Of History and Coffee

My wanderings of the Christchurch CBD, usually to show visitors around the ever changing state of the area, invariably leave me in a morose state for a few days.
To bolster myself I continue to search for new items to photograph - the options are a constant variable - as buildings continue to be demolished, new street art appears, access changes, etc, etc.
Sometimes you need to go that extra step or two - around a corner, through a doorway, slip through an insecure fence........! You can only be shouted at or told politely to remove yourself - sometimes not so politely.
On a recent foray, I found a wall that up until recently had another wall abutted to it, but was no longer. A window had appeared - opaque glass. Eyes had not peered through this window for many a decade. A loo maybe?? Nevertheless it appealed to me.

Room with no view?

Oh, and what about the coffee I hear you cry? This old building is in High St adjacent to the intersection with Tuam Street. Directly over the road is C1 cafe - arguably one of the better caffeine establishments in town, and a regular haunt for my granddaughter and I.
